    I most likely will be able to afford the GT72 at Microcenter. I was considering ordering a NP8652 from xoticpc, but instant gratification is so much better when it happens right away.

    It isn't a deal breaker if it doesn't, just wanted to know.

    Thanks in advance.

    Yes by the standard 200Mhz that all 47xx series chips allow.

    Cool, enjoy. Don't forget most 47xx chips can overclock and undervolt at the same time for cool running.

    Thanks again.

    Not to discourage you, but if you don't let somebody else help me ...the system will never let me add to your rep ever again.

    Haha I've got enough to last me ;) even if the system has had the count reset a couple of times.
